[buthearmeouttho]

If I was part of the mcu (pt. 40)

Bucky, as he gets arrested for skipping therapy: *on the police ride* … wait a goddamn-

Bucky: *can’t remember where I am* oh my god

person driving: what?

Bucky: oh my god I left Cat at Isaiah’s house.

person driving: ..?

*meanwhile*

Isaiah: who are you?

be your date

bodyguard!bucky barnes x actress!fem!reader

summary: you are invited to this year's met gala, and your bodyguard is against the idea of letting you go alone.

word count: 500+

warnings: 18+ mdni. nothing sexual, but still. some banters. hints of fluff. a sprinkle of tension. grumpy but protective bucky (yes, that is a warning!) sort of bratty reader? lack of met gala knowledge probably. usage of petnames such as princess. lowercase writing.

photos used are only for aesthetic and not to describe or visualise the reader!

note: just a little drabble to the story/plot i've been writing! since there was recently a met gala, i thought this would be a great tease for this story. i hope you enjoy this one!

comments, reblogs, and likes are highly appreciated. thank you! ♡

“you shouldn't go.”

as a celebrity, privacy was a rare luxury, and having your personal life being constantly invaded became your new norm.

it also meant having a personal bodyguard to keep you safe, but no one ever warned you about having a bodyguard who was both relentlessly protective and unbelievably attractive with a permanent frown on his face.

god, would it be so bad to have a crush on your bodyguard?

“you can't tell me what to do, you know that right?” you shot him a defiant look, although you knew he wasn't trying to control you, just keeping you safe.

getting a reaction other than a grunt from him was your favourite hobby, anyway.

a delivery was found on your doorstep this morning, containing an invitation and a bouquet of flowers. bucky was beside you as you opened the envelope, and immediately, he was against the idea.

“what even is the met gala?” he eyed the invitation you were holding, brow furrowed while he looked offended by the piece of paper. “it doesn't sound safe.”

bucky had learned about the letters that you would constantly receive, and how half of them were unusual and even concerning. you could still remember the frown he had kept all day when you received a marriage certificate in need of your signature.

he made sure to burn it by the fireplace.

and grunted at it one more time.

“nothing sounds safe to you, jamie.” you argued, rolling your eyes at his protectiveness. you slipped the card back into its envelope, unaware of the faint flush that spread across his face as he heard you call him by the nickname you've given him.

“it's a ball that a bunch of celebrities go to every year, but i don't really find it that special. my manager thinks otherwise though.” you explained. “and i do have to go alone if i'm attending it since it's really private. they even prohibited phones inside, so it should be safe.”

“i don't buy it.” bucky pursed his lips, remaining unconvinced. “i'm coming with you.”

“they won't let you inside. they treat this ball as a highly exclusive event. even bodyguards are off the list. i find it silly as well, don't worry.” you sighed, recalling how uncomfortable it was every time. you had no choice since your manager called it good publicity and a necessity for your career. “oh, unless i bring a date. i could probably sneak them in as a plus one. they love seeing a new pair to spark conversation. do you have anyone you trust enough to be with me so you can calm down?”

you waited for his response, but instead of answering, bucky took a step towards you, his gaze intense and unwavering. he looked at you with such intensity, making butterflies flutter in your stomach that none of your co-stars could do to you.

“i'll be your date.”

your eyes widened in surprise. was he serious? “what?"

"you asked me who i trust enough to be with you." he repeated, his face now inches away from yours, a faint smile dancing across his face. “well, princess. that person would be me."

i may have changed reader from sunshine to confident/bratty because i genuinely can't write a sunshine character without giving up... i'm not the best with jolly emotions. i think it still worked out tho!

oh, and here's a silly lil instagram post. thank you for reading!

if you have any requests for bucky, send them my way! 💌

Bucky, Sam, were on a very important mission

Fighting hydra goons, probably

so Bucky was ACTUALLY shot and stabbed and was bleeding immensely and was near death because of how much blood he lost, but he was hiding his major character injury because back when he was the winter soldier he was taught and told not to say anything unless asked

And so after the mission was complete and Sam, Steve were done, they'd began noticing Bucky's hyperventilation and breathing; roughly and slow, eyes dazed off, looking straight into nothing. One arm holding his abdomen, wobbling every now and then, pale-faced, not talking much as he usually makes comebacks. 

Steve and sam ask him 'you, okay, man?' concerned, worried, and Bucky brushing it off with a "I'm fine" and them going back to arguing about some stupid argument, probably zemo or something, Bucky thinks.

buckys' vision was darkening, he began to see black spots covering up his vision. He felt like he was fading between consciousness, barely holding on, but still having to keep quiet because he's had worse.

And he did, he really fucking did *cue hydra flashments of torture and psychological abuse torment repeatedly. Bucky nearly dying indefinitely but never even getting relief because he'd heal from the serum in seconds*

he'd a-come used to it that instead of flinching for the longest time, he hides them and keeps a stern expression 24/7 alike to the 2k yard stare, to not be seen as showing emotion, 

because emotion= human = not a weapon = chair and wiping<33 !!!!

they then hear a plop to the ground, turn around, and see Bucky on the floor shivering ever slightly, his eyes closed tight, not responding, groaning, and holding his stomach 

knowing now if Bucky passed out, he'd probably pass AWAY LMAOOOO )

they treat buckys wound blah blah

Bucky enters a state of hypovolemic shock and starts looking lost and senseless

Sam & Steve shout & yell for him not to fall asleep, Bucky responds in low whimpers and moans, tears falling every now and then

to them, it seems more like Bucky is afraid of _________, judging by his continuous whispers of words in russian, which they don't know what translates to

(he never ACTUALLY dies, no major character death!! he gets veery close to it tho)

[quiveringdeer]

Give me a character and I will answer: Dazzler!

Thanks for giving me a chance to rant about my fave Badass Diva, babe! Others feel free to send in a name and choose particular things

Why I like them: I really loved how tenacious and driven she was to reach her personal goals and doesnt like to compromise on that but she's still such a caring person that she cant help but jump in to help or save people as a hero, even tho she continually said she didnt wanna be a hero. Just her compassion for people in general, even who I wouldnt think deserve her compassion: 

Her first thought in both instances with her stalker, Karl Fredricks (Dazzler #26 & Uncanny X-Men ‘63 #260), is to reason with him and try to keep him from getting hurt. Also when battling him one of her main concerns is him hurting anyone else before she thinks of him hurting her.

Why I don't: There arent really points about her I don't like. I guess my biggest gripes are that writers tend to relegate her to a gimmick cameo character more often than not and miss opportunities to showcase her immense powerset range and the deep connections she has with a large portion of the not just other X-Men characters but the other marvel heroes as well. 

Also just the original fact the editors didnt allow her to be based on Grace Jones, like John Romita Jr. intended. It would've been noce to have another dark skinned Black woman hero, with star power outside of Ororo Munroe. And gosh the way they probably couldve bonded and had eachother to lean on. There's just so many "what ifs" that woulda probs changed not only Ali's trajectory but the Xmen/Marvel universe at large. But I still love Ali as she is now too. 

Favorite scene (imma do arc): The "What If" arc of Ali as Galactus' long time herald. The way she found away to discover new planets for him to devour but made sure that they didnt have sentient life that'd be destoryed in that consumption! Ugh says so much about her character!! Also that in her time as his herald he grew compassionate to the plights of other beings, seemingly. Because of her leading by example and what not. It's just soooo good and what I want more of in stories starring her. 🥹

Favorite season/movie (portrayal): My rp days version 😏 --But for real, she's only been in a couple adaptations and I dont know if any do her justice. I havent fully watched the episodes of them in the Outback but yeah

Favorite line (too many):

“Sometimes you have to stop running from who you were and find out who you are truly meant to be.” (Dazzler 2010)

“...It doesn’t matter how everyone sees me. I’m not just a mutant or a singer or any one thing, all of this is me.”

“No way Prophet! We’re not leaving! We’re X-Men, not cowards. We SAVE the world. We don’t abandon it because the going gets rough!” (X-Termination #2 2013)

“You know Barb, a lot of people will see you only for what makes you different--and not for all the good things about you--things that make you a human being just like them! And if you let them, those people will make you into what they think you are! They’ll force you to be a toy...a clown...or a monster...or worse.” (Dazzler #35)

“Hey Doomy, misplace the family jewels again?” (Dazzler 2010)

Favorite outfit:

Basically ANY of Daniel Mcnea's designs 

OTP: 

In general: Ali and "The Loves" polymonogomous rp ship of Ali with Wade Wilson, Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes (and not just saying that cause Koi wrote them and also sent this ask! Truly got to explore so much of Ali's character through those interactions and forever grateful 🥹 -also key piece of opening my mind to poly relationship dynamics tbh)

In canon: Ali x music -Her first and most consistent love and relationship 

BroTP: 

In general-- Ali and Julio "Rictor" Richter, another rp exploration with the lovely @myvalentina Ric's technically Ali's, son-in-law but through lots of interdimensional travel hyjinks and stuff. I never know what canon ages truly are but I feel like Ali is less than 10 years his senior and so she's like a big sister and friend to him and it's just really wholesome

In canon-- Ali and Longshot, they've been through so much and if im not mistaken, literally share pieces of eachothers' souls and while things never work out romantically with them in all the times they get back together, I just love the idea of them still being besties regardless

Headcanon:

Gives amazing hugs, doesn't let go till the other person starts to pull away. Read somewhere once about being this way with kids cause you never know how little someone gets of contact and how they might need that physical reassurance.

Unpopular opinion:

Prefacing that to each their own and no hate to other people's preferences 🙏🏽 

Personally I don't wanna see Queen B or Taylor S. portray Dazzler in any future media

While Dazzler had global reach and star power in her prime within the Marvel universe, I just would love others to portray her. My top pick was and always will be Kylie Minogue, but that ship has probs sailed, so more contemporary picks are Janelle Monáe, JoJo, Kesha or Zara Larsson

A wish: She gets to be in some arcs where the writers truly understand her and let her shine fully--iving on top that it happens with an artists that stays true to her strawberry blonde haircolor

An oh-god-please-don't-ever-happen:

Writers continuing to use her as a gag character or portraying her as a washed up singer 

5 Words to best describe them: Compassionate, Stubborn, Driven, Optimistic, Dazzling (😉)

My nickname for them: Ali (super generic), Light of my life and Queen of my heart 😌

[precious-little-scoundrel]

I read the new chapter and I am obsessed! It’s literally the best gift imaginable after tough week. First of all -Maureen and Bucky’s chat. It was so good. Him realising how much this place and situation already drained her and showing her compassion for it??? Thank you! Also, Maureen is my girl with her connections. Of course she (and Buck) would come up with a scheme, and of course she would utilise her friends(?) and acquaintances to try to get them all (but specifically Ida out of there). This tidbit about how Poles just needed somebody new to talk about home to -I feel like that would be so true for every prisoner in there and it made me tear up a little. And her not going to Gale with it but to Egan, because she worries of overburdening the former? My heart 🥹 Also, Maureen once again being the one to clock one’s strengths and recommend Lu for the job! I love her. I really do. Which leads me to the next part. I’m so thankful that Egan pointed out Gale’s habit of infantalizing Lu. Yes, she’s very young and probably should not be ever put under circumstances to end up where they all ended up, but she is an adult. A damn competent one, with military rank to prove it. So yeah, Egan is so right she’s not Gale’s little girl, she’s an officer with skills they very much are in need for. And laying in bed can just as easily kill you in that sort of place. Sorry for the rant, I’m really not a fan of this “she’s just withering little flower, destined to be crushed” sentiment and I love that you are not leaning into that. And, my god, my favourite part is hands down girl working together on their experiment! Lu and Maureen figuring out how to get sulfur, making themselves a diy chemistry lab and succeeding at it! The cheek kisses, the excitement, the pure friendship, my heart is melting. It makes you forget where they really are. And that last line was perfect, once again you killed it (and me alongside it). Thank for a chapter full of Maureen and Egan (I really love their friendship) and Lu and Gale. You really can feel how much they all care for another. I’ll probably be gushing about everything in this chapter for a long time

P.S sorry for all the spelling mistakes, I just woke up

AAAAH BESTIE THIS WAS SUCH A DELISH FULL FIC REVIEW YOU SPOIL ME!!

I imagine that like Bucky and his pub connections that win Gale a bike back in England, Maureen has a tendency to make buds with a weird medley of folks and then know how to utilize it later, ha. And to tho long how long some of the Brits and the Poles had been prisoners for?? Years before the Americans even got there!! Heartbreaking. Or course they’d want a new audience. Makes me wanna weep at the thought.

And Egan and Gale! So much subtext going on in my mind there, ngl. The infantilizing particularly. We saw in Sanchez how Gail tries to recall some of the things Egan has told him, the council he’s given him, for instance, what has been doesn’t always carry over to now. His worries ignited by past concerns aren’t always valid here and now, he projects a lot. And he does that on Lu, too. Sees so kvuh of his younger self and he sorta tends to suffocate more than champion her with his protection. (I honestly adore both their styles of loving). So it’s been fun to think of how Egan can recognize that, recognize it’s hard for Gale to let go but also insist on it.

And the. Oh, my sweet little pyromaniacs, I just know Lu and Maureen bond over being mildly insane with the risk taking haha. And there’s good ole Benny wetting the place down to try to keep the damage minimal. But you won’t catch him stopping them. What a king.

So happy you loved this so much, each duo I get to spend time on brings me such satiation as it’s all in my head but I’m dying to get it out to yall to go nuts with me! ☺️🥰😘

[infictionalwonderland]

Marvel characters with s/o who has gen z humour !

warnings : swearing, jokes about serious matters, concerned avengers LMAO, fem reader in mind

characters included : tony, nat, thor, steve, wanda, pietro, vision, bucky

tony stank stark —

cue bug eyed expression

tbh he will probably make similar jokes but coming out of your mouth, the person he cares most about

he almost has a— i was gonna say heart attack but he ain’t got one 😟 you get the gist

when you reassure him it was a joke he just barely calms down

clings to your side for a bit after said concerning joke

if asked he won’t admit that he was scared shitless

eventually gets used to it tho

and even agrees sometimes

people are so concerned for the both of you they just watch your interactions like 😮

‘these hoes fr?’

he doesn’t really find your especially concerning jokes amusing per say but he won’t almost faint with worry for you

moral of the story is give the poor man a warning

so he doesn’t almost channel his endgame self bc of you.

natasha romanoff —

SHES FR SO CONCERNED THE FIRST TIME

she’s like : 😶😮😦

“don’t say that.”

cue concerned pouting

and you’re like issa joke bby

but she ain’t convinced

from that day forth she officially declared PDA her thing and was all for it, just to show you how much she loves you

she’ll grow used to it

apologies to other concerned and bewildered people on your behalf

a lot of tired sighs

some hidden laughter

but she’s mostly concerned 😭

don’t get me wrong, bae has a great sense of humour but the gen z level humour is a whole other level

won’t really join in on the joking, she’s gotten used to ignoring it at this point

it’s normal for her after a while so she forgets that others are concerned

but hey? your sense ‘a humour is a part of you so she loves it... kinda.

thor odinson —

NO PLS HE’S SO CUTE

imagine the most horrified, appalled, shocked facial expression

that’s his reaction

exactly that.

“lady y/n why would you ever say such a thing?”

you have to sit him down and explain that it’s just how you speak, you don’t mean it.

... most the time anyway 😁

he’ll tilt his head confusedly

“why would talk of your demise be humorous to any sane creature?”

bitch i can’t he’s so cute

AND SO CONCERNED

he’s like a concerned mom 😭

while always frown at the comments

so you lay off on them as much as you can, not liking the unhappy expressions he makes

the rest of the team find his reactions absolutely adorable tho they won’t say that

but also annoying cuz in the middle of full on blood guts and gory fights he’ll come over and hug you and check you ain’t feeling like throwing yourself in front of one of whatever it is you’re fighting

it’s cute but like-

miss ma’am we’re in the midst of a battle

anyway he’s the sweetest<3

steve rogers —

my guy would be FLABBERGASTED

and really sad :(((

he sketched out your whole lives together you couldn’t just leave him now

“what’s wrong? are you okay? did i do something- i’m so sorry if i did-“

and you’re like “no, no, sweetheart it was a joke.”

but he just frowns

“well it wasn’t a funny one.”

rude 🙄

we could say the same about your bland white boy 40s humour but we don’t do we

anyway-

this humour and him don’t really mix well LMAO

but, for you, he’ll try and come to terms with it bc he would never want to change anything about you

and everyone around you is wondering how this relationship dynamic works

bc for shit half as worse as the stuff you say, steve reprimands other people

but with you

it’s just like a free pass

and everyone else’s like 👁👄👁

‘eXSQUEEZE ME’

and you’re just like 😁👍

you’ve got the man whipped so he don’t do or say shit

not in public at least

wanda maximoff —

my baby is the cutest of them all :(

i love her so much

the first time you make the joke she knows you don’t mean it bc she can literally be your mind

but she still gives you a slightly frown-y look like ‘stop please’

and idk bout youse lot but i’d melt at that look

you smile at her in reply

and she gently grabs your hand and kisses your palm affectionately

OROWJFNBEWIWJG

sorry that was me malfunctioning

:) moving on

i feel like she might even laugh at some of your jokes because she knows you don’t mean them in a serious way

and she gets more clarity from seeing in your mind that it’s literally just how you joke

you & pietro would be besties

and wanda would be the tired but slightly amused mom

she gives you warning looks when you say things death related in public and she can FEEL the shock from other people

hand squeezes in warning

thigh squeezes, too

😩😩😩😩😩

basically wanda is just my favourite. :)

pietro maximoff —

i feel like he would have the same ish sense of humour

he’d laugh at every single one of your jokes.. just cuz he’s a simp

and he’ll join in with the same energy

the two of you are in your own little bubble of gen z humour

and everyone not in said bubble is so concerned 😭

“hey piet what do you think about speeding the both of us off this cliff and ending my suffering?”

“only if as my dying wish i get a cheek kiss, princesa.”

“done deal.”

everyone is is like ‘uhhh guys..’

steve’s sneakily pulling out his written and rehearsed speech about mental health awareness

straight up cackles are always heard from the two of you when you’re around each other

cuz you just get each other’s humour

oh, and you’re around each other all the time

so the non stop laughing drives the team absolutely up the wall

vision —

please my mans would give you the number of a suicide hotline

and you’re laughing like —“it was a joke vision.”

his poor android self don’t understand

and probably will proceed not to understand 😭

you have to thoroughly explain your humour to him for him to like 🤔😯🙂 ‘i understand now’

still tempted to give you the suicide hotline number ngl

it would be okay-ish if the jokes were once in a whole bit it’s like multiple times per day

can you hear his electric brain frying ?

you confuse him a lot

like a lot a lot

but he knows he loves you

and will continue to do so

despite your confusing sense of humour

:)

bucky barnes —

JAMES the love of my life

the last he remembers of society, it was still a majorly sexist time and the girls he knew certainly did not act like the girls now

especially the humour

so this fine ass man is SHOOK

bae fully freezes and is like - 😲

he just looks at you in stunned silence

and you’re like 🤨”what?”

“you- yo- are you okay?”

and you realise what’s the matter and it’s hard not cackle but you plaster a smile on your face and push down the laughter

“yeah, yeah i’m fine, that was a joke.”

“that’s how people joke now?”

you just explain to him it’s your sense of humour and his still in disbelief

will call steve later on that day on the device he doesn’t understand and inform him

the sexc grandpa duo share their shock

never gets used to the jokes

he doesn’t comment tho

he just shakes his head with a small smile

because even tho he doesn’t understand your humour or why you even find what you do funny, he genuinely thinks you’re perfect the way you are

plus if he understood everything about you and you were just normal it would be boring, he’ll admit.

It was such a great day at the beach. Hot mid summer day, spent in a bathing suit, finally relaxed from all the Avengers pressure. You had gotten ready kinda early in the morning, not wanting to waste any minute of your day off. You bumped into Natasha returning to her room after her workout and after chatting for a bit, letting her know of your plans, she decided to join you. It was an opportunity to spend time together, so you both decided to invite whoever else wanted to come along. It resulted in Steve, Sam and Bucky joining you, which actually led to a day full of fun.

You were now on your way back to the compound with Steve and Nat in the front of the car and you, squeezed between Bucky and Sam in the back seat. Everyone was tired after a whole day of swimming, sunbathing and playing games so there was a comfortable silence and you were about to fall asleep. Suddenly you felt Bucky moving and grunting on your left side.

“Are you okay? Do you want me to move?” you said moving to your right thinking that Bucky didn’t fit. After all he was a pretty big guy.

“No no, I’m fine, I’m okay” he said with a half smile, shifting in his seat. You looked at his posture remembering that from the moment you got into the car, he sat very still, without his back touching the back seat. You could tell there was something off, but he looked rather uncomfortable and you didn’t want to ask him infront of the others.

Bucky was shy and quiet around the others, even though he was living at the compound for quite some time now. His room was next to yours, so when he had nightmares his first days here, you were always there to ground and comfort him. Since then you became really close, and you were one of the very few people he let touch him. It was honestly a surprise to everyone the first time they ever saw you sitting really close and he didn’t move away. You didn’t mind that he was always near you or touching you, because you realized that it made him feel safe. You liked the physical contact and the time you spent together, and little by little, your crush to Bucky developed.

You just nodded and gave him a reassuring smile. His flesh arm was pressed on your side, his hand on his thigh, so you felt his muscles tensing with every slight movement. It hurt you to see that he was in some kind of discomfort or even pain from the grunts that left his lips every now and then, but you let it go, deciding to ask him once you were alone.

⎊ ‎⎊ ‎⎊ ‎⎊ ⎊ ‎⎊ ‎⎊ ‎⎊ ‎⎊ ‎⎊ ‎⎊ ‎⎊

After about 30 minutes you arrived and once the car stopped everyone sighed because you would finally go to sleep. You gathered your stuff and started walking to your rooms talking about your day.

"I had a great time. We should do this more often." Nat said to all of you, stopping outside her room.

"Me too, it was a great idea Y/N. Didn't know you actually had these." Sam teased you before entering his room too, laughing and leaving you speechless.

"Did he really-?" You turned your head in shock finding Steve and Bucky trying to hold in their laughs.

"Yeap he did... and i can already see the wheels in your head turning, coming up with a way to get him back tomorrow at training." Steve added and started walking again.

"Don't you worry about that." You said with an evil smile hearing them chuckle again.

Yours and Bucky's room was right next to each other so after saying 'goodnight' to Steve you were walking in silence.

"Are you really okay? You looked strange on the ride back home." You finally asked him, stopping on your tracks outside of your rooms. He didn't answer and he looked like he was deciding whether he should tell you the truth or not. But your concerned face made him feel bad for lying on the first place.

"I um... I got a... I got sunburnt on my back..." he said looking at you to see your reaction. The frown on your brows became even more visible as you walked closer to him. His eyes never left yours as you reached out with slow movements and lifted his shirt a little, revealing his skin. It was red and looked sore, making you realize that this was why he wouldn't sit back in the car.

"Oh my god Bucky! This looks really bad." You looked into his beautiful blue eyes, trying to think of a way to help ease the pain.

“Don’t worry doll, it will be healed by tomorrow.” he shrugged and turned his body to open the door of his room.

"Listen, I have a gel that will cool down your skin and reduce the redness." You said and opened the door of your room, leaving some space for him to enter. 

“You really don’t have too” he said looking back at you. 

“Yes, but i want too. At least let me help you feel more relaxed, even for a few hours.” He hesitated for a moment, but the awful feeling of his shirt touching him was irritating and he couldn't wait to get it off.

He walked in your room and stood at the end of your bed, leaving his bag on the floor near a wall. You quickly shut the door, throwing your stuff on the bed and going into the bathroom attached to your room. Once you found the aloe gel, you walked back out seeing Bucky still standing looking around.

"You can sit on the bed if you want." You offered and waited for his next move. He sat on your bed softly, very close to the edge like he didn't want to intrude into your personal space, even tho you had let him in the first place.

"Can you please take your shirt off?" You asked with a soft voice,not wanting to startle him, knowing how self conscious he was about his metal arm and scars.

He slowly nodded, without looking at you, winching when he moved his arms to remove it, because of the pain. Once it was off, he put his hands on his lap playing with his shirt, too afraid to look up to you and see your reaction to his scarred shoulder. 

He was nervous. You could tell by his body language. You moved closer, sitting behind him so you faced his back. It was very red, especially on his shoulders and shoulder blades. You opened the cap of the tube and squirted some gel on your palm and fingers, before closing it and tossing it next to you.

“I’m going to touch you now okay?” you figured that it would be better for him if you told him exactly what you were going to do.

“Okay” he wispered, on the verge of tears, afraid that when you touched him you would feel disgusted by him.

You lifted your hands after barely hearing his response, and warned him that it would be cold. He nodded and you slowly pressed your palms on his back. You heard him hiss and shiver, but you didn’t move. He would feel much better after this.You spread the aloe all over his back massaging his skin, focusing on his shoulders were it was more sore. 

How could this have happened? He didn’t even take his shirt off nor he is burnt on his face.

You asked yourself after rembering that he wasn’t shirtless at the beach. You were totally fine with it, just like everyone else. Not one of you would pressure him into doing something he didn’t feel comfortable doing.

“Hey Bucky...do you mind me asking how you got burned, since your face is fine and... you didn’t take your shirt off?” you asked him and grabbed the gel bottle again to add more to your hands. He tried to swallow the lump in his throat and hold back his tears so you wouldn’t suspect anything.

“No um...I actually took it off to get into the sea, but you were all sleeping... so that’s probably why you...didn’t see me” he said and shifted akwardly on your bed. The truth was that he actually waited until everyone was asleep, so he could take off his shirt for literally ten minutes, to get into the water.

“And i put sunscreen on my face so...yeah” he added and waited for your response.

“Why didn’t you wake me to help you?” You said concerned and slightly suspicious because you had an idea of why he didn’t.

“Like i said, you were sleeping and i didn’t want to bother you” he sat up after you told him you were done and looked back at you.

“Listen, i dont want to pressure you, but you know you can tell me everything right?” you crossed you legs looking at him and waited for his responce.He knew that you knew. After all you knew him really well to notice when hes lying.

He closed his eyes sighing and sat next to you on the bed. “The truth is...that...” he trailed off and you put your hand on his ,that was resting on his thigh, and squeezed it, as a sign to continue.

“...I just didn’t want anyone, and especially you to see me shirtless... to see my scars and remember that i am a monster.” He said and wiped a few tears that escaped his eyes.

You weren’t entirely shocked to hear that. Only because deep down you knew that this was his biggest insecurity and he wouldn’t open up to anyone about it easily, even if he refused it. 

“Oh Bucky...” you hugged him tightly, your hands caressing the back of his head. He wrapped his armaround your waist, hugging you back even more tightly, burying his face into the crook of your neck and you felt some tears wetting your shirt. After a few moments you pulled back, wiping his tears stained cheeks, with you thumbs.

“I could never see you as a monster Buck. You are far from that. What you did all those years was not you...you are the kindest, most giving man I know who always puts himself first to protect others. I’m not disgusted by your scars Bucky and i will never be. They don’t make you a monster and they don’t define you. They prove that you are a survivor. And i know that you will see that one day too. But until then, i will always be by your side to remind you.”

He stayed silent for a few seconds, looking straight into your eyes, until he finally did what you both wanted for a long time. He leaned in and left a soft kiss to your lips, staying there for a little until he realized what he was doing and quicly moved back and sat up.

“I’m so sorry about that! I’m sorry if i made you uncomfortable... i should probably leave.” he said quickly and started gathering his things.

You stood up and made your way over him, took his face into your hands and smashed your lips to his. He dropped he things he was carrying and put his arms around your waist bringing you closer so that your chests were pressed together. Your lips moved in sync and your hands make their way up to the nape of his neck, playing with the hair there. He licked your bottom lip asking for pesmission and when you opened your lips he slipped his tongue into your mouth. After a while you both pulled back and stared into eachother’s eyes.

“Been wanting to do that for a long time.” you said biting your lip smiling, looking back at him.

“Did you now?” he chuckled and pecked your lips once more. “Thank you. For everything you said about me. I really appreciate it. I really appreciate you.” he smiled and pressed his forehead against yours.

“Of course Buck. I’ll always be here for you.” you smiled back and looked at his lips again. “So...you wanna do that again?” you giggled.

“Absolutely” he smiled and leaned in again capturing your lips into his. His hands moved down to your ass giving it a squeeze, before hissing and pulling back because his back had just collided with the wall. He looked at you with furrowed brows, pretending to be angry because you had pushed him all the way back.

“Oops...”

FwB minor safe

THIS IS SAFE FOR MINORS. and by minors I mean 15+ cause there's still some kissy kissy and implied sex. AND SWEARING. Seriously tho, no under 15s reading this.

When you had first met Natasha, she hated you. Or at least that’s what it seemed like. She ignored you, refused to train with you, and when she did train with you, you always ended up in the medical bay, and she always, always had something to say when you came back from a mission. You had really hoped to at least had a friendly acquaintance with the other woman on the team. You always had Wanda but she was often pining after a certain red synthezoid. You only realised Natasha wanted to be friends when Clint let it slip that she was like a cat. He was clearly sick and tired of the two of you constantly fighting and wanted it to end. Or perhaps it was Steve who finally wanted it to stop. It didn’t really matter who because now you had a way in.

Your friend’s grandmother used to rescue stray cats and while Natasha certainly wasn’t a cat, you figured the same rules applied. First, you would make extra food when you knew she would be there, telling her there were leftovers if she wanted them but never pressuring her into eating with you. Then, you slowly began just sitting in the same room as her, always a distance away from her so as to not make her uncomfortable. Eventually she began to warm up to you, even going as far as letting you sit on the same sofa as her.

Things all changed one night when Natasha came back from a mission gone wrong. She had been given bad information and the data she was supposed to collect wasn’t there. She was pissed. Steve called you into the lounge and told you to stay out of her way if you valued your life. It made you slightly nervous. The two of you were friends but you weren’t that close. Not close enough to know for sure whether or not she would hurt you. Everyone retreated to their rooms and locked their doors, not wanting to be in the way of an angry Black Widow. Because that’s who was coming back. Black Widow, not Natasha Romanoff.

You couldn’t sleep that night so when you saw a figure enter your room, it scared you shitless. You grabbed the gun from under your pillow and pointed it at the figure.

“Who the fuck are you?”

“That’s kinky babe and maybe we should revisit that idea but right now I want to fuck you senseless.” Natasha - no the Black Widow’s voice spoke out in the dark. It was that kind of muffled sound that you only heard in the depths of the night when no one else was awake.

You lowered your gun but didn’t take the safety off. Just in case.

“There’s no need to be nervous darling. I’ve seen the way you act around me.” Natasha walked towards where you were on the bed, leaning down and lifting you by your chin up to her lips. “Just tell me to stop and I will.”

You moaned as Natasha’s lips connected to your neck, roughly sucking and biting her way to your collarbones. She leaned you back and wrapped a hand around your neck as she looked at you. Even in the darkness, you could see how black her pupils were and feel how heavy her breathing was.

“I need you to understand that this doesn’t change anything. We are still just friends.”

"I understand." You leant up to kiss her but she just laughed as she pushed you down and kissed you harder, leaving you alone once she had finished playing with you.

Nights like that became routine between the two of you. If either of you had a bad mission, or were just feeling lonely, you would end up in your bed. It was never Natasha's bed and most of the time Natasha was in control. Occasionally however, if you had a particularly bad mission or Natasha had seen unspeakable things, she would relinquish control and you would savour every minute of it. Perhaps if the two of you were dating, you would be able to have control more- no you couldn't think like that. It was a dark hole that you couldn't go down.

Somewhere between the rough nights and the friendly movie nights the two of you had, you had fallen for the fiery woman. Natasha made sure that you always remembered that it was just a 'friends with benefits' arrangement by never sleeping in your bed. It was a tricky balance for her though because she would cuddle you all the time during the day. It was almost as if she regretted sleeping with you.

The friendly flirting between the two of you drove the team absolutely crazy. It was like everyone except you two could see how perfect you were for each other. You just fit together. Yet whenever they asked either of you about it, you both denied it vehemently with a sad look in your eyes. The team had had enough. They were done with the two of you fucking, flirting and then crying yourselves to sleep when you both realised you didn't have the relationship you wanted.

It was Wanda's brilliant idea to have a game night. She had watched a sitcom where the characters played truth or dare and confessed their love for each other.

"I'm not so sure that will work witchy." Tony said after Wanda had finished explaining her plan. "Maybe we should play 7 minutes in heaven or spin the bottle."

"Why? How is that better than my plan? All they do is suck each other's faces off. We need them to admit their feelings for each other." Wanda stood up, slightly defensive over her plan.

"I...I think I have a better idea." Steve spoke up and everyone turned to look at him. "How about we kidnap Y/n? Y/n wont believe us if we tell her Natasha loves her and Natasha isn't going to admit it over a game of truth or dare. If we kidnap Y/n and stress Natasha out a little, then she might finally admit she loves Y/n."

The room was silent. "Remind me never to get on the wrong side of you" Clint muttered, causing the rest of the room to break out into a slightly nervous laughter.

"When's Y/n's next mission?"

~~~~~

You were sent out on a routine solo mission. It was something a lower level agent could have easily done but you were happy to get out and away from the compound for a bit. You loved your family but their constant questions about Natasha were getting too much. It was a constant reminder that you guys weren't in a relationship at all. The more you thought about it, the more you tried to convince yourself that a relationship wasn't even what you wanted. You had been on a few dates since your arrangement with Natasha had begun, mostly to throw her off the scent of your growing crush. However, when you returned from your failed date (because they always failed), Natasha was always there to fuck you hard and rough. Sure, she would leave it a few days, distancing herself as much as possible, sometimes completely ignoring you, but she would always come back. The mission was complete and you were making your way back to the Quinjet, too distracted in your thoughts of Natasha to realise someone was creeping up behind you. You were knocked out cold.

When you came to, you were in an abandoned warehouse, tied to a chair. It was all very James Bond like. You tried to look around, but everything seemed blurry.

"I can't believe you hit her so damn hard!" You heard a voice ring out.

"I didn't mean to! Oh my god she's going to kill me." A deeper voice, probably male, spoke.

The voices sounded kind of familiar but you couldn't work out where from.

"Natasha, we found her!" that was the last thing you heard before passing out again.

"I am going to murder whoever did this to you Y/n." Natasha told you as she carried you to medical. She refused to let anyone else touch you and didn't let you out of her sight for one second.

The usually fearless avengers all froze and turned slightly pale. They were 100% going to blame this all on Steve. If anyone had a chance of surviving the Black Widow, it was a super soldier and besides, it was Steve who had knocked you out. Bucky had told him not to use his shield to do it.

You awoke to find yourself in a hospital bed with a very concerned Natasha holding your hand. You gave it a little squeeze and smiled at her.

"Never ever ever do that again. Do you understand me? I thought I lost you..."

"It's okay Tash, I'm fine." In that moment it was so hard to remember that the two of you were just friends, that you would never be anything more than friends.

"Date me."

"What?" You were stunned and not completely sure you hadn't just hallucinated.

"I can't do this friends with benefits thing anymore. I know I was the one who said it was nothing more but I think I'm falling for you Y/n. Do you know why I was so distant with you to begin with?"

"Because you're a cat?"

Natasha smiled, she couldn't even bring herself to laugh she was so nervous. "No Y/n. It was because I really liked you. You walk into the compound all happy and beautiful and I dont know what to do. We would spar and I would get weird tingly feelings wherever you were touching me and it made me confused. I tried so hard to stay away from you but then you started leaving me food, or sitting with me, or trying to make jokes and I just couldn't stay away. When you didn't come back to me on time, I was so scared. I thought you were dead. When we found you..." She ran her hand through her hair, her other hand never letting go of yours. "The relief I felt nearly made me fall to my knees. I understand if this ruins our friendship but I really can't continue on just being your friend. I think... I think I love you." Natasha whispered that last part so quietly you almost missed it.

"I would love nothing more than to date you Natasha. I was so worried that I was reading too much into things and that my feelings were wrong and would ruin everything. It's why I dated other people for a bit."

"Well good. How about we-" Natasha was cut off by an announcement from F.R.I.D.A.Y.

"Considering agent y/l/n is up, Mr Stark request's both your presence in the lounge."

When the two of you made it to the lounge, hand in hand, they all clapped. Natasha scowled and held on tighter to your hand and you just laughed.

"Why did you call us here?" You asked

"Well, the thing is, we don't want to be murdered so we're really hoping you'll stop Natasha from doing anything drastic."

"What did you do." Natasha let out lowly, she knew you shouldn't be up and about, that it was better for you to rest until you were feeling completely better again so she wanted this over as quickly as possible.

"Well...-"

"IT WAS STEVE'S IDEA!" Wanda blurted out. "I just wanted to play truth or dare but nooo. Stars and Stripes over here wanted to make things all dramatic." Wanda waved her hands in the air.

"What was Steve's idea?" You asked, still a little slow on the uptake. Natasha wasn't though. You could feel her becoming tense and you held her hand a little tighter.

"...The kidnaping..." The team hung their heads in shame, trying to simultaneously look at their shoes and keep an eye on Natasha.

The room was completely silent before you burst out laughing. "You're kidding me? You actually kidnaped me just so Natasha would admit her feelings for me? Guys I'm dying." You wheezed as you tried to catch your breath from laughing so hard.

Natasha however, didn't find it nearly as funny.

"Natty, darling, it's fine. They did it because they care." You whispered into her ear, leading her out the room before someone could get easily injured. Getting blood out of carpets was a pain.

"Your days are numbered Super Soldier. I'm coming for you." she said, watching as Steve's face turned completely white before turning and leaving the room with you.

Headcanons for the Avengers teaching you how to drive

Avengers x reader

warnings:

a/n:

prompt: anonymous: “hey! if it's not too much to ask... can i request an MCU Avengers headcanon of the team teaching teen!reader how to drive? i'm finally learning how to and it's absolutely terrifying (i really hope this sends properly because firefox crashed while i was trying to write it lol)”

firstly no one was very thrilled to be your teacher because getting in the car with an inexperienced driver just felt like a trap

and although they’d put themselves in much more dangerous situations than this

they all had the same thing to say:

“this is not how i want to go down”

but theyd FORBID anyone else from stepping in

“it’s okay, i’ll do it” -cap

“no, no, no. i dont think the one hundred year old man knows today’s road rules. i should teach y/n” -nat

“natasha, you’ve let me drive you before. was i that bad?” -cap

“im not having this discussion” -nat

“you should let vis do it, he might stay calm while y/n drives” -wanda

“what about sam—” -bucky

“no.” -sam

you were actually quietly watching them bicker about who’d have the honor of teaching you

“i dont let anyone else drive me, y/n. you’re not special. but i’ll give you a cool car when you get your license, deal?” -tony

“i’m not special?” -you

“sure you are kid, i just never want to get in a car that you’re driving is all” -tony, patting your head

“oh, okay” -you

the avengers actually decided that wanda was right and vision was probably the best equipped to teach you

they just had to see if you’d enjoy having him as a teacher

the team set up a little course at HQ with a LOT of cones

“how am i supposed to get around all of those?” -you

“you can use your powers!” -thor

“that’s against the rules!” -you

they had to take some of the cones away :(

all the avengers watched from the side of the course

“now, y/n, you need to shift into drive. press your foot on the brake and move this knob to the ‘D’ position” -vision

“which one is the brake?” -you

“...the left one” -vis

sam was recording on his phone

and had redwing do a bird’s eye view for “special footage”

“this should be good” -sam

as soon as you stepped on the gas, the car went speeding straight forward

sam was laughing his ass off but the rest of the avengers were terrified for you

you hit 6 cones before the brakes

“have some faith in them, guys” -wanda

“i just don’t think that’s possible. you guys okay in there?” -rhodey

“spectacular, thank you for your concern” -vis

you needed to try a different teacher

nat was next in line

“okay, so we probably should have mentioned how sensitive you have to be with the pedals. i know we dont do that on missions, but when you’re on the road, you have to watch all of your surroundings” -nat

she totally brought you straight into traffic because the only way you learn in through intense pressure and real world experience (according to her)

“hands at ten and two, right?” -you

“if that’s what you think” -nat

“that’s not helping” -you

screaming every time you turned

ESPECIALLY left hand turns (or right turns if you are not in the US but this takes place in the US i guess idk it’s whatever you want ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)

redwing was still following you

everyone was watching the surveillance footage at HQ

“tony, you’re paying for any damages y/n makes, right?” -cap

“is that all im good for? my money?” -tony... “duh, of course i’m paying”

blowing past a red light

“you were supposed to stop” -nat

“what, now?” -you, braking in the middle of the intersection

*honking from all sides*

“what do you think, y/n?” -nat

cap was covering his eyes

“this is a disaster” -wanda

“takes one to know one” -tony, without thinking “oh my god, i’m sorry”

“lets just focus on y/n, maybe we can give them some feedback” -cap

nat made you drive into a parking lot

to park

“okay, just pull in straight. you have to be even in between the lines” -nat

“is that good?” -you

“y/n...you parked directly on top of the line” -nat

“...fuck” -you

next person to teach you was......

“come on, y/n. just go through the drive thru. i’ll pay for your chicken nuggets” -rhodey

“i dont really want chicken nuggets” -you

“fine, okay, you can get whatever you want. just go through the drive thru” -rhodey

you hit the curb

you actually rode the curb

“this is fine” -you

“well...you’re getting better” -rhodey

“dont sugarcoat it, man” -you

“come on! eyes on the road!” -rhodey

steve decided to step in and let you handle the driving on an actual mission

“at least here you’ll have some sort of free reign, that way you can get a better feeling of control when driving” -cap

“we dont like this plan” -all the avengers in the back of this big ass truck

redwing was following ofc

honestly,,,,, that plan wasn’t too bad

you did hit a few trees but this was a heavy duty vehicle

you’d have to do a lot more than that to hurt anything

“hey, this is actually pretty cool! i think ive got the hang of it!” -you

they scheduled you drivers test when you got back, but assured you that it wasnt the end of the world if you failed. you could retake it after some more practice

but you did end up passing it!!!! even tho there were a few mishaps

“mx. l/n, your turn signal” -instructor

“my what?” -you “oh crap”

but you got your license and the team took turns passing it around to take a look at it

“oh man, you look high as a kite. what’s going on with your face???” -tony

“shut up! no i dont!” -you

celebratory dinner!!!!

and sam put together a compilation of all your worst/best moments behind the wheel

“heres the one where they put it in reverse instead of park and started rolling backwards......and thats when they jumped out to try to stop it with their bare hands....oh no!!! they’re going down!!!!” -sam

“oh my god, nooo!” -you, burying your face in your hands

and to top it all off......tony bought you your own car (and got any modifications you wanted)

“i swear to god if you ask for flames on the sides, im donating it” -tony

[slytherindisaster]

Just some ramblings because I have some ocs I need to work on and I don't want to forget about it. Also a few questions I did forgot about and I'm bad at communicating so this is my way of handling this.

The Sapiehas

Their birth years and overall existence don't make much sense because I fucked up when I decided on Gabriel's birth year making him like 10 years olden than the rest of HPHL mcs so let's just pretend that it makes sense in the end ok.

CJ — 3 years younger than Gabriel, Hufflepuff, because his father died when CJ was barely 14 he grew up idolising him and resenting Gabriel for always rebelling against his rules. CJ ends up following Joseph's footsteps and becomes an auror and also just like his father developing a problem with alcohol. He would either have a wife he does not care for or just stay single apart from some meaningless relationships. He dies from alcohol poisoning at age 34.

Margaret — 2 years younger than CJ, Ravenclaw, INFP, lesbian. The fact that her brothers never stopped fighting broke her heart. If I could find her some love interest it would be fun because she deserves it but I'm also tempted to leave her to be a spinster and also the coolest aunt to Gabriel's kids. Or maybe both. Either way she wouldn't have any kids on her own.

Jojo & Elisabeth — because of my dumbass decision to make Winnie's birth year 1905 that would make Jojo & Elisabeth's birth years 1901 & 1904 respectively. Also @beloved-bucky I know we've been talking about them and how they would make cool fantastic beasts ocs but as I said I'm shit at communicating so it got dropped. Since I shamelessly already took Winnie my question is – would you like to take one (or both) for yourself? I know I can be shitty when it comes to collaboration so I thought it might be easier to just split and develop them separately? If you want? Or just drop all the ideas about them at once and maybe then try to make sense out of it?

Mallory & The Rosiers

They're all just a bunch of random ideas plastered on a faceclaim rather than fleshed out characters but I'm working on it. Also @cursebreakerfarrier are we content with Toby and Winnie having two kids or do we want more?

Mallory Brokenshire — born 1931 to Winnie & Toby, 2 years younger than Jem, slytherin, INTJ, owns a potion shop on Diagon Alley. Again because I'm a dumbass and can't do math she would be only 20 when her daughter is born but I could totally see Tilly just hanging out at the potion shop for half of her childhood. I'm more concerned about how on earth would she have a potion shop by that age but maybe grandpa Gabriel could help with that.

Sterling Rosier — around 4 years older than Mallory, Pukwudgie house alumni, freshly finished with his Healer training when he comes to England to reconnect with his family there. He and Mallory meet in her shop when he has to run errands for the hospital. Then he ends up coming there for stuff he doesn't really needs and less than a year later they're already engaged. He is a sweetheart tho so I might kill him prematurely >:)

Leland Rosier — Sterling's brother, I'm not sure atm what's their age difference but I'm tempted to make them twins. Basically everything about him is tbd

Victor Rosier — Sterling's father, probably born sometime around 1901 but I'm not sure yet, his family moved to USA when he was 5 or so and he is a Thunderbird alumni. He works as an Auror and he used to be Tina's partner before she was dismissed. I will probably open him for ships if anyone's interested but keep in mind that he has to have at least two sons.

Evangeline* Rosier — a pretty big timeskip here because she would be a golden era oc. Either Harry or Ginny's year. She would be Evan & Felix's sister and she would be a Hufflepuff. Idk much about her for now, I might give her a ship with canon character but I'm not sure yet. She's the best tho.

*her name will probably change tho

The Parkers

Tilly Brokenshire-Rosier — not much going on here tbh, she's Mallory and Sterling's daughter, Lizzie's mother, a gryffindor and a professional Chaser, although her career is cut short when she gets pregnant and then her husband and step-son dissappear in mysterious circumstances and well everything goes to shit.

Anthony Parker — he's a cool guy who doesn't have much luck in life, his wife left him with a little kid and he has trouble with keeping his shit together, I'm not sure how he meets Tilly yet but they're the sweetest and she instantly loves Jacob and they're so happy together. Until they're not. He is a Hufflepuff and a magizoologist who specialises in winged horses.

Jacob Parker — so, yeah, he's Lizzie's half-brother and he is around six years older because I saw this post and I really like that logic, he is a big wip still but I might kill him or Lizzie in the second wizarding war bc I'm a bitch

[sambucky4everlark]

Bucky had just sat on the couch of his apartment in NY, hair still wet from shower, when he hear the bells on the front door and finds Sam after he goes open.

SAM: (joking) Hey, man. Do you know where I can find a hotel to crash for the night?

BUCKY: (coughs to conceal his smile) Uh, I think there's one a few blocks away.

SAM: Oh, so that's how's gonna be?

BUCKY: (laughing) Course not, come in!

Sam enters the flat and notices the blankets folded on the sofa.

SAM: Wow, you already separated the stufs and shits. Who knew you re so thoughtful?

BUCKY: (embarrassed) I'm not gonna lie that I was planning to call and offer you to stay here, but you were faster than me. (hesitates) So no... those are for me. You can keep the bed.

SAM: What?! Bucky that's ridiculous, there's no reason for you to stay in the couch-

BUCKY: Look, I'm not doing you any favor, ok? I always sleep in the living room, I'm used to it...

SAM: (gentle after a moment of concern and then understanding) Your bad is too soft?

BUCKY: Yeah something like that...

SAM: (trying to easing up the mood) Ok, but you'll have to borrow me some clothes, cuz even tho I got the bed I don't think I'll sleep comfortable in this super-high-tec-wakandan-suit.

BUCKY: (smiling aware of Sam's effort) The price for looking good on it (coughs) I mean, as Sharon would say.

He goes to the bedroom to get clothes and a towel. Sam follows him.

SAM: (knowingly) Well it's very kind of Sharon to say that but I think I owe you for all the compliments I'm getting.

BUCKY: Uh, yeah! You do! (they both laughs) But it was nothing really... Ok, go shower while I'll get something for us to eat.

SAM: (teasing while accepting the clothes) That's your way to say I smell bad or you just want me to strip?

BUCKY: (pushing sam towards the bathroom so he can't see him blushing) Both.

15 minutes later Bucky had prepared sandwiches when Sam comes back to the living room now in Bucky's clothes.

SAM: So, is Sharon ok?

BUCKY: (trying to not stare him too much) Hm... yeah she's fine. But I had to tell her you already talked with the senator bout her pardon, here (gives him one of the sandwiches) you know, to convince her to stay at the hospital. So you better speed that matter tomorrow.

SAM: (sits on the left end of the couch) Actually I have indeed talked already with the sanator. So it seems we're much on the same page. (takes a bite) Hm! specially when it's comes on peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

BUCKY: (snorts) Would you look at that?! (hesitates) So, Cap... what's your next plans?

SAM: That's exactly what I was gonna ask you.

BUCKY: (teasingly) Wow! I think there's a true bond here.

SAM: Or maybe it's your cyborg brain syncing data.

BUCKY: Yeah well, this cyborg brain asked you first, so...

SAM: (sighs) I don't know man... I mean, there's still some pendencies I want to make sure it will going to be taken care, like Isaiah and the refugees, you know... But after that I think I'll probably stay in Delacroix until a new mission appears. (finds Bucky's eyes) There's only one thing that makes me unsure if I really should do that.

BUCKY: (nervous and locked in his gaze) What would make you not go?

SAM: You not coming with me.

They both stare each other's eyes for a moment, trying to read the others reaction.

BUCKY: (in disbelief) You want me to go with you?

SAM: I do.

BUCKY: Why?

SAM: (gives him a soft smile) I don't like the idea of you alone here... (moves closer and put his hand on top of Bucky's metal hand) but I kinda like the idea of us together.

BUCKY: (takes a big breath while grabs Sam's hand and switches his look between Sam's eyes and lips) I think I like this idea too.

SAM: (smiling) That's nice. But now, you plan on kissing me this year yet or what?

BUCKY: Shut up Samuel.

Bucky leans closer to kiss Sam who corresponds immediately. They spend hours like that, kissing and loving each other, and when the tiredness wins over them they sleep together tight on the couch.

The Avengers reactions to You getting into a fight at school

Warnings: cursing

Reader wrote to be female (pronouns are only used like once so i mean, anyone can read it ig). (Thinking I'm writing an actual fic out of this)

(idk what/where this gif is from)

(Also I don't own any of the Gifs used)

You got into a fight because some girl was being a bitch to someone you like 😏 (it can be whoever you want, irl crush, Peter, MJ, etc. your life, not mine)

You don't normally pick fights with people so this is like, a big thing for you

The bitch hit you first

You dodged her second attack

and broke her nose

You ended the fight

You ditch school and come back to the tower

Peter told Tony

Tony told everyone else

Peter saw everything go down

Fucking snitch

Don't worry, your crush helped you clean up after :) (you were bleeding a bit)

Tony:

Not too happy about hearing about it

He was passive-agressive to you when you got back to the tower, made you ✨uncomfy✨(He's scary when he's upset ok? He also lowkey has an army of robots)

He finally asks you about what happened and you tell him

Teases you about doing it to get Peter's attention (whether that's true or not, you deny it)

He's very much like a dad about the whole situation

Steve:

When he asks you about what happens, you start cursing

Comes at you about cursing

"Language."

"Sorry, BuT sTiLl!"

Crosses his arms at you, trying to be angry with you

Is secretly proud of you for standing up for someone because, he too, is a goody two-shoes and probably would have done something similar

Picks up that it may have been your crush who compelled you to do it but doesn't bring that up

Bruce:

Indirect about approaching you about it

When he does bring it up, he's a lot more calm than Tony, but gives you a mini lecture

"If that had been me approaching that situation, I never would have because the Big Guy would have probably killed them and we don't want that."

Makes sure you're ok tho

Natasha:

You can't tell if she's disappointed, proud, angry, what

She simply asks what happened, casually springing the topic on you right as your taking a sip of your favorite drink (you choke on it)

At first, she just listens intensely which scares you a bit, but is secretly proud of you that you stopped a fight with one hit (strong bby :3)

She gets you to tell her why you started bickering in the first place and you just come out and tell her about your crush

She encourages you to ask this certain someone out ;)

Clint:

Stalks you from the vents for a little bit before dropping down to interrogate you

Damn near break his nose

At first he scolds you for fighting, but loosens up

"If you were one of my kids-"

He's said too much

You weren't supposed to know he has a whole ass secret family (let's just pretend okay?)

Oh well, cat's out of the bag now

He tells you to not tell anyone what he said

Crawls back into the vent and disappears

Thor:

Isn't the best judge of scenarios like this because things are so much different on Asgard

Praises you for doing the right thing

The two of you talk about fights you've been in and the worst injuries the two of you have sustained (Thor wins that obviously)

You excitedly tell him how it felt getting hit for someone and he fangirls with you as well

He offers you alcohol (despite you being a bit young) (Do you take it?)

Tony yells from the other room

"Don't encourage her, Thor!"

Bucky:

Doesn't really approach you about it, he doesn't really talk with you much tbh (he doesn't really talk with anyone other than Steve, or younger people) (Look, idc if the timeline's screwed up)

Kinda proud you took a punch for someone tho

Gives you a thumbs-up when you pass him after talking with Steve about it

Sam:

Much like Steve, he's a bit stern with you, crossing his arms

Tells you to not do stupid shit like that (without him)

He only loosens up when you tell him that this certain someone has unconsentually stolen your heart

Won't stop teasing you about your crush but doesn't spread it to the other Avengers

Rhodey:

"You fucking what!?"

High-fives you when you tell him the story

Also encourages you about the ordeal like Thor

He's a bad influence on you

"You shouldda just gone in, hit her, and been like 'Boom, you looking for this?'"

Everyone in earshot just freezes and just blankly stares at him

"Not funny, okay. Bad joke."

Tony looks at him, daring him to encourage this behavior

Wanda:

She doesn't confront you about it, more like you race up to her and giddily tell her about it

Asks if you're okay (which you confirm)

Lowkey wants to see what it looked like

"If you want you can look in my head if you wanna see it it was sO aWeSoMe!"

Refuses your offer but looks anyways because she's curious

Nearly freaks out at your memory when you get hit

Very satisfied when you hit the bitch back though

Sees your crush that way, she'll talk with you about your crush when you bring it up later, she doesn't want to ruin your excitement

(I'm considering her a possible crush insert too now so maybe she already saw it and is like, still horrified you'd do that for her bc she doesn't think shes really worth getting sucker punched for so let's do this:)

(She's concerned that you're excited about taking a hit for her but thinks its sweet)

Peter:

He fucking SAW IT HAPPEN! (Ned saw it too)

He freaked out and helped you clean up outside before you buggered off to clean up elsewhere (with the help of your crush, unless it was him, then he leads you somewhere to help clean you up better)

Doesn't know whether to be horrified or impressed

When he tells Tony, he's screaming about what happened and is really blown away by the incident

Really worried about you afterward

Regretted telling Tony because he thought you'd kill him for it (I mean, you might ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯ )

Won't shut up about it for the next 3 weeks

Vision:

He really only brought up that you looked different

Asked if you got hurt somehow because of the bruise and cut on your face

You tell him what happened

Doesn't really understand why you of all people would get into a fight

Warns against the (obvious) results of taking physical damage

Isn't much of a supporter or disciplinary figure on this whole ordeal, very neutral

[aurumacadicus]

Hey if you're still doing the 5 headcannons thing, if this doesn't make u uncomy cud you do sex worker(healthy & willing) Tony stuck at Steve/buckys apartment due to quarantine? The other is the roommate & they all just hit it off very well, up to u if ends in r/ship or not but both Steve and bucky are totally fine with the sex worker part tho, neither tries to make him stop. If you are uncomfy maybe one of your aus(your choice) and how they're dealing with having Tony home all the time now? ☺

This probably isn’t what you meant lol but anyway:

“I’m expecting a lot of packages,” Tony says shiftily. “Is that safe?” Bucky asks, concerned, because both Tony and Steve have compromised immune systems. He knows it wrankles Tony something fierce to have to depend on him for going out to get groceries, so maybe getting packages is his way of rebelling, but he can’t imagine Tony doing that when it could also put Steve at risk. Tony looks like he’s in considerable pain. Finally, he haltingly says, “It’s... things... for work.” “Oh,” Steve says before Bucky can answer. “We’ll make it work then!” “It’s not time-sensitive, so if we need to put it aside before I can touch it, that’s okay,” Tony adds hurriedly. “It’s just... products I’m testing out. For customers.” “Into the naughty corner it goes,” Bucky agrees. Except it’s... a lot of packages. A lot of them. Holy shit. “You’re usually not here when I get stuff,” Tony says miserably as Steve and Bucky consider the tower of packages. Bucky whips around, agog. “This is normal?!” “I, ah,” Tony says, fidgeting, then sighs, shoulders sagging. He keeps his eyes on his feet. “I have a website. Where I. Um. I put on... shows, and... I’m a cam boy,” he finally admits, crossing his arms. “These are all toys. There, I said it.” Steve and Bucky turn their eyes back on the tower of boxes. It’s an awful lot of boxes. “Are you safe?” Steve finally asks, turning to look at Tony again. Tony blinks at him in surprise. “Yeah, of course.” “Then that’s all that matters,” Bucky says, and then, “Except maybe tell your customers you’re limiting new toys. You’ve got a heart condition.”

Steve and Bucky check out Tony’s channel just to make sure. Luckily Tony hadn’t been fibbing, or bending the truth, or anything like he usually did when he was hiding something--Tony doesn’t show his face, uses a voice modulator, and he carefully keeps the camera faced away from any identifying markers in his room. They’re satisfied with this and they’re about to close out of the page when Steve grabs Bucky’s shoulder and says, “Oh my God this is not safe at all,” and Bucky about swallows his tongue when he sees the size of the dildo Tony’s trying to force into him. “It’s just for the video,” Tony says when they confront him. “I make sure to use plenty of lube. I just pretend I don’t because this one guy who follows me likes to watch me cry in pain. He tips really well and he knows it’s not real. I can show you the emails where we came to the agreement.” “No, you don’t have to,” Bucky says haltingly. “We trust you.” “We’re sorry, Tony,” Steve adds. “This is just... really new to us. We don’t mean to overstep.” Luckily, Tony looks touched instead of offended. “Thanks, guys. I really appreciate it. Listen, if it makes you feel better, you can feel the dildo. It’s actually really soft. I clean them really well!” Bucky is about to tell Tony that’s not necessary, but Steve immediately puts his hands out, and Tony goes into his room to grab it. It bends and squishes in Steve’s hand when he squeezes, and eventually Bucky reaches out to touch it, too. “Wow, you really are a good actor, I thought your ass was being ripped in two and I was gonna hafta take you to the hospital,” Bucky admits, and Tony beams at him for the compliment to his acting.

“I have a proposition now that I know you’re cool with... all this,” Tony says. “It’s fine if you say no. I just thought I’d ask.” “Okay,” Steve and Bucky say, turning to look at him. Tony still looks shy, so they figure it’s a bigger deal than anything he’d told them before. “I, uh. This lady offered for a personal session for voyeurism play. She’ll give me two grand for a video of me fucking someone else.” When they say nothing, he begins to turn red, and mumbles, “I thought we could go fifty-fifty but, uh... I guess I overstepped... I’m sorry...” “That’s rent,” Steve sputters. “Just for sex? Bucky, let’s go into cam work.” “You like being an artist,” Bucky points out, amused. “And my parents would disown me for throwing college out the window to go into sex work and you know it.” Steve frowns at him, conceding, then whips back around to Tony. “If Bucky says it’s okay, I’ll definitely fuck you for a thousand dollars.” Tony turns puppy eyes on Bucky. “I can always negotiate a threesome if you’re not okay with--” “As long as I am allowed to masturbate to the video for free, I will allow it,” Bucky offers magnanimously. “Also Steve either bottoms of you ride him. If he’s actively fucking, chances are he’ll have an asthma attack, and we’re not taking any risks of having to go to the hospital during this pandemic.” Tony ends up riding Steve, ass slapping wetly against Steve’s thighs, and the woman ends up tipping them seven hundred dollars extra because ‘I never thought about two twinks together and you’ve given me a lot to consider.’ Tony splits the tip with them as well, and Steve treats himself to some new copics because he’s been able to work from home, and Bucky buys himself a new tablet because his old one was a hand-me-down and starting to glitch out.

“How would you like three hundred dollars to pretend to force me to take a too-big dildo,” Tony asks one day. “While calling me all sorts of horrible names while I cry and beg for you to stop because I can’t take it.” “Hard pass,” Steve says immediately, not looking up from his drawing table. “I don’t think I could do it for three hundred dollars,” Bucky adds. Tony looks disappointed, but he nods, turning back to his tablet. “Okay.” Then, twenty minutes later, he says, “What about five hundred?” Bucky looks up from his book, considering. “...I could swing that, maybe.” “He’s a good tipper, too, if he really likes the video,” Tony adds hurriedly. “And we’d split that, too.” Bucky looks at Steve, who shrugs. “That’s fine.” “Okay,” Bucky agrees, looking back at Tony. “People pay this much for you? Really? Not to be an asshole or anything.” “I mean, I don’t have a lot of hard limits, so sometimes other cammers will contact me, and there’s a market for really kinky shit,” Tony muses. “People are willing to pay for what they want, especially if it’s personalized for them. And the furries pay really well.” “The furries,” Steve and Bucky repeat, turning their full attention on him. Tony doesn’t look ashamed. “Listen, if someone wants to give me a thousand dollars to sit on a dildo with a knot on it and beg for my alpha to breed my dripping hole full of pups, I’m not gonna turn it down.” Steve and Bucky have many questions, but they figure they can Google them, since Tony’s been so straightforward about all this. Tony and Bucky get a basic script of what will happen during the video down before they do it, and Bucky doesn’t even feel a little bad as he calls Tony ‘fuck hole’ and ‘greedy cunt’ as he ‘forces’ a dildo as big as his fist into Tony’s well-stretched ass while Tony tries to shove him away, crying and begging him to stop. Bucky ends up using his own shirt to tie Tony’s hands together to get them out of the way and the customer apparently really likes it, because Steve and Bucky find not five hundred dollars transferred into their account, but eight hundred. “Maybe we really should have gone into camming,” Steve and Bucky lament.

“Hey, Tony, do you want--Oh fuck,” Bucky says when he opens Tony’s door without knocking to find Tony on his bed, shaking, clearly sat upon something vibrating. “I’m sorry.” He leans back to look at the door, frowning when he doesn’t see the ‘filming’ sign Tony had started putting up once his current job was out in the open. “I’m not filming yet,” Tony says hurriedly. “My last live-stream voted for me to be all fucked out before I even get on tonight so that I’m all oversensitive and whiny. I’m just getting ready.” “Oh,” Bucky says, relieved. “Steve and I are going to order a pizza now that they’re allowing takeout. Do you want some?” “Yeah!” Tony answers excitedly, bouncing where he’s sat, apparently forgetting what he’s doing in the excitement of takeout. “With anchooooh fuck oh my God I think I just came from the thought of pizza.” “I mean, to be fair, it’s been a long time since we’ve gotten Gino’s pizza,” Bucky replies, amused, as he watches Tony jerk and twitch. “Anchovies, olives, and mushrooms, right?” “Yeah,” Tony sighs, sagging onto the bed tiredly. “Oh my God. I came from pizza. I’m sure there’s someone out there who would have fucking paid for that, too.” “Put the idea out to people,” Bucky suggests. “We’ll keep the pizza in the oven for you if it gets here while you’re filming.” “Thanks!” Tony calls out as he closes the door. “You’ll never believe this, but Tony just came from the thought of getting pizza,” Bucky says as he walks back out into the living room. Steve takes a long sip of his drink before he says, “Bitch, me too, I’m tired of cooking meals. I don’t want to make shit or do dishes. I want takeout for days.” Bucky laughs.

Jenga

previous part // It’s All Fun and Games Series Masterlist // next part

main masterlist

Summary: The gang goes to Tony’s pool party. Y/N finds out that Bucky lost at Jenga.

Pairing: Bucky Barnes x Reader

Warnings: swearing; threats of violence

A/N: ok, i’m having so much fun with these that i don’t even care they became an entire series without me even realising it; plus, who cares i’ve already posted 4 parts in a week already????

ironic how i’m writing about a heatwave when we’re literally going through a huge storm rn tho....i miss summer so much 😭

Y/N loves Tony. What she loves most about Tony, however, is his pathological need to throw a party for the most insignificant of reasons. It is no wonder then that he’s now invited all of his closest friends to his penthouse, that has a casually built-in pool, to celebrate the first day of the heatwave that’s supposed to torment New York for the next week.

Making her way out to the patio, idly chatting with Maria about a book they’ve both read, Y/N notices how there’s now a huddle of people right outside the glass doors. She can hear Wanda’s shout of surprise, while Clint doubles over in laughter, Viz just puts a hand over his mouth in shock, but she can’t see anything because Thor and Steve are right in front of what they’re looking at. Tony leans back, enough so he can see Y/N from behind Nat, and wiping away at a corner of his eye under his sunglasses, he calls them over.

“What’s going on?” Maria asks as the others break rank to let them notice it’s Bucky they’ve been judging.

“Aw, babes, I was wondering when you’d get here. I thought Sam’s gotten you hostage or something.” Y/N goes to hug Bucky, but she stops in her tracks when she notices the cap on his head.

There’s complete silence, as every gaze is trained on her, watching her narrow her eyes, a frown deepening between her eyebrows. She senses something is wrong, but she’s too focused on what’s wrong with Bucky to comment on their silly behaviour. He’s completely still, his breathing coming out in short bursts, as if afraid to scare her if he’d make any loud noise or move too fast. He licks his lips while one of her hands slowly grabs his cap and yanks it off.

Her mouth falls open, unhinged from its socket and someone takes the cocktail glass from her hand before it slips from her fingers. The blood drains from Y/N’s face and with an animalistic growl in his direction, she turns around and storms back inside. A door slams somewhere inside the apartment, before Bucky can even shout after her.

“Aw, man, come on! I thought she was gonna lose it!” Sam shouts in disappointment, suddenly breaking the eerie silence.

“Well, it could’ve gone so much worse.” Nat says, taking a swig of her beer. “I was expecting broken glasses and maybe a concussion.”

“Shouldn’t someone go after her?” Pepper asks, tone laced with concern, still looking into the direction Y/N’s disappeared.

“No, don’t worry.” Bucky replies. “She’ll come back out to punch me after she’s processed it.”

He brushes a hand through his hair, trying to get used to the short strands himself. He guesses he could’ve handled it better, maybe given her a warning before she took off the cap, maybe even told her before he’d done it in the first place. But he lost at Jenga, and the rules were set by Sam, which he now realises in hindsight were stupid to begin with. There’s nothing to be done now, he thinks with a shrug. Besides, hair grows back, and if she really hates it that much, he’ll just wear a cap around her until it grows back.

Tony slaps him on the back, congratulating him for not looking like a ‘ratty hobo’ anymore, although he himself concedes that Y/N’s going to kill him eventually and with that, everyone disperses into different directions to entertain themselves and enjoy the sunshine and the pool. Steve’s the only one left next to him, arms crossed in front of his chest, water still dripping from his trunks, and yet he still looks like a disappointed parent. Bucky sighs and moves towards the bar, trying to ignore his best friend who just follows him determinedly.

“I just want to say that for all I appreciate you finally deciding to give that ridiculous bun up, do you really think it was the right choice to do it because you lost at Jenga?”

“Hey!” Sam shouts, right behind them. “Last time I lost I had to wear all my shirts inside out for a week. This is fair. A loser’s a loser and he agreed beforehand.”

“Man, these were so easy on them, give me a break.” Thor’s head pops over the counter of the bar. He hands them each a bottle of beer and as they all sit on the stools, he points his finger towards Steve in warning. “Y/N made me tattoo a smiley face on my butt when she was playing, so be grateful she wasn’t there last night.”

As the conversation falls into the typical subjects like jobs, holidays, and how they can annoy the girls next time, Bucky realises half an hour later that Y/N still hasn’t come out. Just then, Nat places a hand on his shoulder, shifting his attention from the debate on who would win in an arm wrestling match.

“She’s in the last guest room on the right. You better go and talk to her or I’ll rip your eyelashes out.”

Bucky nods, leaving them behind as Clint announces that none of the guys would win because Nat would just beat them all up with her eyes closed. He makes his way through the apartment that feels more like a mansion, until he finds the room, which surprisingly is open.

Y/N is laying on the floor, head turned toward the windows, probably watching the fluffy clouds. There’s no point in him questioning her choice of position, considering there’s a perfectly made, heavenly looking bed a few inches away from her, so Bucky just lies down next to her, right in her line of sight. They look at each other for a few minutes, neither saying a word, and Bucky interlaces their fingers together between them.

“What did I say?” She finally grumbles.

“You say a lot of shit, baby. You’ve gotta be more specific here.”

“Don’t be a smart mouth with me, you little asshole.” Her free hand pokes his ribs, hard enough to make him wince. “What did I say?”

“You said I’m not allowed to ever cut my hair.” He sighs.

“And what did you do?”

“I cut my hair.”

“Why?”

“Because I lost at Jenga.”

Y/N sits up a bit straighter, leaning on her elbow, a frown still on her face. “No. You cut your hair because you’re an asshole. You could’ve agreed to literally anything else.”

“Fine, babe. You’re right.” He concedes. “Now, can you stop being mad at me and come out? The pool is really nice and I can’t chicken fight without my best partner.”

“I’m still mad at you, Barnes!” She pouts, trying in vain to escape Bucky’s arms as they lean on the side of the bed, but he manages to grab her and tuck her under his chin, blocking her with his legs.

“I’ll grow it out again if you really hate it that much.” He whispers with a kiss to her temple.

She looks up at him, her hand yet again going to his hair and she tugs at the strands in her usual manner. The curls bounce back, and she smiles softly. “I don’t hate it. It’s just…that bun was so you. I guess I just have to get used to it.”

“Hey, at least I didn’t shave the beard as well.”

Y/N’s eyes nearly pop out of her head and she punches him in the shoulder, earning her a laugh. “Don’t you fucking dare. I will end you, Barnes.”

“Eh, you’d live.” He shrugs. “You’d love me even bald.”

“Debatable.”

“Wanna bet?”

“Do you really want me to cut your balls and you don’t know how to ask?”

“Why do you insist on being so violent with me?” He asks.

“Because I love you?” She offers with a shrug.

“That’s a good reason.” He concedes. “But it’s not the answer to everything.”

Y/N shrugs again and extracts herself out of Bucky’s arms. She stands up, offering him a hand. He throws an arm over her shoulders, and with their fingers interlaced, they make their way towards the pool again.

“How the fuck did you lose at Jenga anyway?” She pipes up, a flare of anger emerging again. “Didn’t I teach you everything you need to know?”

Bucky just stops in his tracks, and leaning to the side in order to look at her, he frowns. “You’re shit at Jenga. You literally won only once.”

“And it was enough to bestow the best sentence in history!” She declares.

“I don’t know about that. Thor seems to love the tattoo.”

“That fucker. I’m going to so beat him at chicken fighting now.” Y/N yells, nearly dragging Bucky behind her now.

“Ah shit, here we go again.”

Androids, Aliens, and Wizards

Episode two in the can and this show is proving to be a highlight of Phase Four so far. I really liked WandaVision but you can tell that narrative was more of a transitional one for Wanda, herself. It wasn’t bad or anything, just small. That show felt small, which makes sense considering what it wanted to do but this one? The Falcon and the Winter Soldier? This one is big time! This one episodes busted the MCU going forward, wide the f*ck open and i loved it! I was debating whether to cover this this thing on an episode by episode basis or just do one big review at the end but, if episode two left me with anything, it’s that i gotta do this sh*t weekly because, f*ck, this one had SO much! Here are the highlights that stood out the most to me.

Wyatt Russell cuts a good John Walker. He definitely looks the part and captures that snobby, elitism, the character so effortlessly exudes in the book. He’s doing a great job just hinting at it right now but that sh*t is eventually going to go full-blown and I think Walker might end up being a straight up villain. Or, at least, the Thunderbolt’s version of Cap. Yo, that’s probably when he’ll get he moniker “USAgent!”

Solid introduction of Walker but the way. I loved the introspection and the way we saw hints of the the storm just underneath the surface. There is a rigidity there, one prime to eventually break and i am here for all of that.

Didn’t expect Battlestar. That is a pretty deep cut from the Marvel lexicon. I’m not mad mind you, and rather enjoy the rich ass story Feige is building with these characters, but it was just a surprise. Battlestar is less than D-list but it looks like he’s going to play a pivotal role in this, at least as far as Walker’s development is concerned.

I love the chemistry that Sam and Bucks have. It’s effortless animosity, all because they both love Steve the most, and it’s adorable.

“The Big Three.”

“How do you know about Gandalf?”

“It’s actually White Wolf.”

Of course the guv’ment bugged Red Wing. How could they not? That thing is loaded with Stark tech and Sam was a fugitive for treason. There’s no way they strap a couple hundred million dollars worth of classified military tech to his back.

Yo, she IS Flag-Smasher! That Ginger chick is the MCU’s version of Karl Morgenthau. Gender swapped AND race swapped?? Yeah, some cats ain't gonna be on board for this show at all. Karli Morgenthau! Me? I’m here for all of it! I’ve written at length about my love for reimaginings and it just tickles my fancy that they went with Erin Kellyman; A pale shinned, ginger haired, half black, Irish woman. Just confuse all of the bigots. I hope she has more lines. She hasn’t really had the opportunity to properly act yet, even on Solo. Actually, she’s kind of just playing Enfys Nest again, right? Think about it.

Elijah Bradley sighting! That makes three Young Avengers? Wiccan, Speed, and Patriot? Marvel is going all in with this “youth initiative” i guess?

Isaiah Bradley just f*cked up the whole MCU. man. Look, I've always been a fan of the “first” Captain America. His narrative hits pretty close to home for me as a Black dude whose Grandpa was in the Air Force around the same time as Bradley. The fact that he was super juiced and NO ONE EVER KNEW ABOUT IT, NOT EVEN STEVE, is f*cking disgusting. I need to know why. I need to know how. Why the f*ck was he in prison for thirty years?

“Steve believed in you. He trusted you. He gave you that shield for a reason. That shield? That is... That is everything he stood for, that is his legacy. He gave you that shield, and you threw it away like it was nothing. So maybe he was wrong about you and if he was wrong about you, then he was wrong about me.”

“A word of advice then; Stay the hell out of my way.”

The Power Broker is in this, too? Noice! Feige is crafting a Frankenstein’s monster of a masterpiece with this how! It makes perfect sense, of course, but i didn’t expect it. I figured the Flag-Smashers just got bootleg Super-Soldier serum or something, like they stumbled on the sh*t somewhere. The blip did just poof a lot of motherf*ckers away instantly. Whose to say an entire, clandestine, military laboratory didn’t get poofed, too?

Dat Zemo stinger, tho! Very Hannibal-esque. I loved it! Zemo was actually one of my favorite villains and, outside of Thanos, the only one who actually won. Men of will, yo. Men. Of. Will.

This show is leaning HEAVY in the race stuff. A certain portion of the viewing demographic, probably the same ones that will be upset with the way this show interpreted Karl Morgenthau, aren't going to like that much.

These shows are too short, man. Marvel needs to give us proper hour long episodes, or release this sh*t as a dump. a f*cking half hour run-time with a recap at the beginning and then a title sequence? Bro, what? This Saturday morning cartoon vibe is bullsh*t!

I ended up watching this episode three times, i loved it so much. As a Marvel shill, the reverence for comic lore displayed here was awesome. Feige is pulling all the stop and playing with all the toys right now and it’s making for a far more intriguing watch than WandaVision. I said last week the MCU is at it’s best when they do Winter Soldier/Civil War type narratives and this show is proving to be one of the best. I can’t wait to see Zemo and how he factors into this plot. I can’t wait to see what happens with USAgent and Battlestar. I can’t wait to see how the Flag-Smashers finally have their showdown with the Power Broker. More than that, i cant wait to see how much growth Bucky and Sam have by the end of this show. So far, there’s no fat on this rind and i am enjoying these prime cuts. Let’s hope it continues into next week.

Four Can Keep A Secret

Pairing: Bucky Barnes X Reader

Summary: You finally find out the reason of your sickness, and you don’t know how to tell Bucky Barnes that he’s going to be a dad, so you start to be a little distant. But what if he takes it the wrong way?

Warning: Fluff, A LOT, Natasha scaring Peter to Death, just a little of angst, pregnancy

Word Count: 1580

A/n: Hey again! Hope you like this one. Bucky is silly, but the fluff kind. And Natasha’s gonna kill Peter one day not really tho. Enjoy! 

                                                (Gif not mine)

You were looking at your milk and cereals with a borderline disgusted expression. You were in a room full of people doing breakfast, talking and arguing over silly things. These in particular were Peter Parker and Sam Wilson.

-Hey, y/n you alright?- Natasha asked softly without making herself heard by the others.

-Uhm… yeah. Why?- You were a little unprepared to that question so you tried to look relaxed, but Natasha was a woman and also a spy. A good one. So you didn’t fool her, not for one minute. She stared at you concerned for some seconds, before getting up from her chair.

-Y/n would you help me with the dishes?- she asked, silently telling you had no real choice. So you got up, nodding. The others barely noticed. Some of them were already at the SHIELD base to talk with Nick Fury about a mission, and thankfully one of them was your boyfriend.

You two went to the kitchen with a mountain of dishes in each of your hands. You and Nat started to work. She washed , you dried.

-Talk.- she basically ordered. You knew that she was doing that just because she cared a lot about you and your friendship. She and Wanda were your best friends.

-I think I made mess.- you admitted. Nat stopped and stared at you.

-Anything which isn’t death can be fixed. Tell me, so I can help you.- she responded with a sweeter tone. You took a deep breath and looked around the room, terrified that someone could hear you.

-I may…I mean…You know- you stuttered. Natasha sighed softly and put a hand on your arm.

-It’s going to be okay. I promise you.-

-I think I’m pregnant.- right after that phrase, both of you heard a noise that scared you. You turn to the door, just to see Peter with a shocked expression on his face, and a broken dish on the floor. Wanda arrived straight away.

-What the hell?- she asked looking at the young guy. You saw Natasha giving him a warning look.

-It just… Slipped. I’m sorry i’m still sleepy.- he stuttered laughing nervously, scratching the back of his neck.

-You didn’t see that coming, Spider Man?- Wanda said, teasing him.

-You go finish your breakfast honey, we will handle this.-  Natasha smiled at the girl.

-Okay. Try not to break the entire set uh.- She have a little bump to the guy’s shoulder, coming back to the dining room.

You leaned on the kitchen counter, a hand on your face.

-It’s true? I mean does Bucky know? I’m going to be an uncle?- he kept asking quickly, until Nat rose from the ground where she was picking up the pieces of the broken plate and put her left hand on his mouth shutting him up.

She pointed a finger on his chest, looking at him like an angry mother.

-You listen to me very carefully now, baby spidey.- she warned -You are going to keep your mouth closed. Or you’ll be dead, not an uncle. Understood?- he nodded quickly with fear in his eyes. You decided to intervene before Nat could kill Peter for real or before he could die spontaneusly of fear.

-Peter, Natasha will not kill you. You have my word.- you joked, but he seemed really relieved anyway. -I just ask you to not tell anyone, okay? It’s a news and a bloody mess and I need some time. Can you do this for me?- you asked softly.

He nodded. -I will, y/n. After all i’m an avenger and Spider Man and aunt May has’t found out.- he responded proudly.

-Yet.- Natasha finished the sentence.

-Okay… now i’m going back to dining table. But… Y/n think about it, I would be and amazing godfather!-

-PETER!- Nat screamed.

-

Three days had passed since you told Natasha about the baby. Eventually Wanda found out on the morning after, because she unintentionally read your mind. So now both of them and Peter, who still kept his word, knew. Everyone told you that you had to tell Bucky about it, but you still weren’t sure. He always talked about how scared he was about his past, and the possibility that the shit Hydra put in his head could come out again.

He didn’t seem to have noticed anything. But little did you know he actually had, and that he already talked about it with Steve. He told him that you seem a little cold and wired, and also that when he tried to get closer to you, you rejected him.

Steve was as confused as his friend, because he knew very well that you loved each other like anything else. So he adviced him to talk to you. And that’s what Bucky had in mind to do.

So that evening, after dinner, after spending a little time with the team, you went to your bedroom and Bucky did the same. You were a little surprised, because he usually stayed with the boys for a bit longer on before going to sleep.

-Hey, to bed early tonight?- you asked, casually putting on a sweater when he came into your shared bedroom. Your belly was slightly starting to show. And that was noticeable because you’ve always been pretty flat. You haven’t been visited by Bruce yet, but you must have been at least a month and a half by now.

He gave you an half but not sincere smile, and then he sat on the bed’s edge. You frowned getting closer to him.

-What’s wrong, baby?- you asked softly. He laughed slightly, then he rose his gaze, looking at you with his beautiful baby blue eyes.

-I should ask you, probably. Shouldn’t I?- you tensed a little, but tried to keep it cool.

-What do you mean?- you asked, quite confused. Was he angry at you? He suddenly got up from the bed.

-You want to break up with me, y/n, is that it? Just be clear about it.- he said, looking away. He looked like a lost puppy and it was hurting your heart. How could he ever think something like that? You put your hands on his cheeks, making him look in your eyes.

-Why would you ever think that? James you are my world. There is’t any place, or person I would rather be with.- he seemed relieved by your words.

-I…I don’t know. You seemed so distant in these past few days. You didn’t wanna be with me..- he spoke quite low in the end.

You chuckled putting your arms around his neck. He looked at you with confusion.

-Oh, darling. I’m pretty sure we’ve been together for a little too long.- you said with a sly smile.

-I’m afraid I’m not understanding.- he responded. She bit her lower lip lightly to hide a smile, then she leaned near his ear.

-I’m just saying- she bagan to whisper, -That if you didn’t want to be a father, James, you should have controlled yourself  a little more.-

He turned his face to look at you. He had wide eyes, completely in shock.

-Are you certain?- he asked breathless. She nodded.

-Yes. Wanda even told me she can feel him already.- He let out a breath and started to laugh, placing his hands on her hips to raise her in the air. She let out a little squeak for the surprise, then started to laugh as well.

-I’m going to be a father!- he said almost in tears. He made her spin a little then he put her down and hold her tightly.

-But…Since when did you know? That’s why you were being that strange? And that hungry?- her jaw dropped at his words, and then she gave him a little slap on the chest.

-It’s not like I’m eating an entire fridge!- she said with fake offense.

-You kind of are, doll.- he laughed a little. She rose an eyebrow.

-Anyway, I found out a week ago actually. And I’ve told Nat three days ago..-

-You mean Natasha knew before me?- he exclaimed outraged.

-I needed an advice! But don’t get mad…Wanda and Peter also know.- she hid her mouth with her hands, trying not to laugh at his shocked face.

-What?! I mean, I get Nat, even Wanda… but what about Peter?-

-He heard me and Nat by mistake…and Wanda felt that something wasn’t right so she read my mind.- he huffed, looking at her with his lips slightly pursed but amused.

-Any other surprises I should be informed of?- she shook her head with an half smile.

-Good. Then I think we have an announcement to do.- he responded placing a gentle kiss on her lips, and a hand on her lower back.

A few moments later they were in the Avengers living room. Everyone was there. Sam, Steve, Natasha, Bruce, Tony, Thor, Peter, Wanda, Pietro, Vision, Clint and even Pepper.

-Well, we have an announcement to do. Right, doll?- he said with a smile. She nodded.

-Are you finally getting married? Wilson give me 50 bucks.- Clint said, but Natasha stopped him.

-Just listen, you dumbass.- then she smiled widely at the couple.

-Okay, so… we’re having a baby.- a loud cheer rose from the people, and immediately everyone went to hug them and say their congratulations.

-Oh, thank God. I couln’t take it anymore.- Peter said, gaining a laugh from Wanda and the future parents, while Natasha just wrapped an arm around him.

-Well I’m actually impressed, baby spidey. Three whole days. I wonder for how long you’re actually gonna avoid telling the truth to your auntie.- she said with a sly smirk.

Bucky looked at the love of his life, and after a few moments she did the same. Without saying nothing, they just shared a kiss. Eyes said everything for them.
